A social media influencer with 1.6 million TikTok followers influenced thousands of people to hate him after his latest post. On a visit to the Palms Las Vegas buffet, a man who calls himself \u201cMister Lewis Lux\u201d harassed staff, wasted food, and made a general asshat out of himself for the sake of some exposure for his social media channels.<\/p>\n

In the video, \u201cMister Lewis\u201d piles two plates so high with whole lobsters, one falls off on his way back to his table.<\/p>\n

\u201cOh well,\u201d he says as he steps over it.<\/p>\n

A Palms buffet manager approaches his table and, quite calmly and reasonably, explains that a sign at the buffet specifies only one lobster per plate, and that he must finish all eight he already took before returning for more.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt doesn\u2019t say you have to eat the plate before you come back, though,\u201d Mister Lewis angrily replies, a statement that neglects to address his transgression.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe casino who be taking all your money has a problem with me taking some lobster all you can eat?\u201d he says in a voiceover as he films himself dripping butter on his lobsters and then dancing around his table.<\/p>\n

Check it out yourself.<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n

\u201cAt only $80, this deal is definitely worth it,\u201d his voiceover concludes, \u201cbut the way that they treated me made me want to leave immediately.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The video ends with Mister Lewis depositing at least six of the eight lobsters into a trash can in the kitchen, while two staffers tell him he\u2019s not allowed back there.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“They treated me like trash,” reads a caption overlaying the scene, which ends with a shot of the perfectly good lobsters at the bottom of the trash can.<\/p>\n\n\n

The video has so far received 45,000 views on YouTube, 21,200 on X\/Twitter — 2.3 million more when it was shared there by @LasVegasLocally<\/a> — and 12,660 Instagram likes.<\/p>\n

Rage Eating<\/b><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n

The comments were universally negative across all platforms.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cPOS no respect for other guests, the staff, or those involved with the production of these goods. Selfish as hell,\u201d commented Instagram user hamelinsghost.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThis got you views, congratulations. You’re still a disgusting person who throws excessive and expensive food away while there are people who are actually hungry,\u201d commented X\/Twitter user @pelota_en.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cDisgusting behavior,\u201d echoed YouTube user @chaoticthegod.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Mister Lewis, who apparently is based in Los Angeles, branched out for this stunt — both geographically and in his subject matter. Usually, he orders the most expensive liquor in a bar and then forces bartenders to make a cocktail with it as he humiliates them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

One Reddit user claimed to have quit his job bartending at the Chateau Marmont because of a scene he once created there.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cYelled drink orders at me from the pool,\u201d the Redditor wrote. \u201cI told him to come to the bar and order. He said, \u2018Sweetie I\u2019m new money I can talk to you however I want.\u2019\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Palms did not reply to Casino.org<\/em>\u2019s request for a comment.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
